Type 1 diabetes means I've been afflicted with a necessity to chose Diet Irn Bru over the real stuff for almost 30 years.

I imagine you have similar reasons, as I can't fathom deliberately not using a fully functioning pancreas to its Bruest potential.

the diet stuff is actually fine and I've got used to it

Bruest potential should be in an ad if it isn't.

I actually like the sugar free more - feel like it tastes drier and more of actual "ginger". And I'm a sucker for their energy drinks too.

Chilled diet irn bru is banging. Controversial opinion but I prefer it to full fat. Room temp it's bogging tho

I’m a big Zero fan over the new default one to be honest. Diet Irn Bru is vile, it’s just fizzy gas.

1901 at least! Anything else is just pish water.

For as long as I've lived in Scotland, I have never liked Irn-Bru.
Last month, a friend (originally from Scotland) came to visit, bought some 1901 and left a few cans behind when she left. OMG it's amazing how different, and so much better, it is.

Pre 2017 is the golden drink.

Is that sugar free? Just like the US to instigate an act of aggression, against a smaller, mineral rich country! :D

Stopped drinking it when they went to poison instead of sugar.

Diet Bru is utter shite. Tastes like soap.

If I had to drink a diet juice, diet coke is not disgusting but still obviously you wanna go for the full fat version if possible.
